This week on GR: Jon Elmer is a Bethlehem-based Canadian photo-journalist who has lived
in and reported from Palestine for more than a decade. He writes for the
Inter Press Service and al Jazeera among others, and can be found on
the internet at JonElmer.com. Jon is also the single-most often appearing
guest on Gorilla Radio, and is our main source for legitimate news from
Occupied Palsestine and Israel.

And; Susan Lindauer was an American intelligence asset from 1996 right up
until the day "that changed everything." In the days and weeks following
9/11, she witnessed her government and the press excoriate the
"intelligence community" for its failure to protect the homeland, and
ridicule hers and her colleague's service to the nation.

Outraged, she
demanded her side of the story be told, applying to be included in
Congressional Hearings, only to find herself to be the first non-Arab
American arrested and imprisoned under the newly-enacted PATRIOT Act.
Susan Lindauer is out now, and as determined as ever that her story be
told. She is the author of the book, 'Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying
Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq.'

And; Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV broadcaster, Janine
Bandcroft will join us at the bottom of the hour to bring us up to speed
with newz from the streets of Victoria and beyond.

And; before 9/11, 2001 U.S. intelligence agents were convinced of an impending attack against American targets, possibly using aircraft, and quite likely targets would include the World Trade Center. Those warnings were not heeded, with results that literally changed the world.
